Xero Gravity

Glee!

About buying them though, some that ARE shareware I DID buy as a younger lad (like Monkey Island, Beneath A Steel Sky, Cannon Fodder etc). Happy days...

Don't you have to start as number one for that challenge? I'm not quite sure on that, but that's what I did just to be safe and I completed that challenge first time.

Thank god for that...I get to exact revenge for the hours I wasted trying to kick his ass only to get hoofed across the screen in a shower of blood.

This game is going to be the shit...plain and simple. I've got that shot of all the character as my desktop, but I can't seem to find Motaro...am I blind, or is he just not on there at all?

Way too big for a sig, but it's decent. Not sure about the font, seems awfully overused lately.

I personally like your planets idea for some time down the line, it'll give me another chance to try and expand on doing other than just wrestling related crap in Photoshop.

Oh, and Xero... the phaser blast is coming out of the Klingon ships torpedo launchers :pinch: . Looks awesome though.

Anyone got any tips on how to regain interest in the game? I've been playing it less and less for a while now, and I can't seem to find a way to get some of the fun back. I'm trying to get my hands on a max drive, but being unemployed at the moment means I'm skint...any other ideas would be helpful.

The Serenity fanboism is a little frightening. I haven't seen it, but have heard it from two people I really respect as either the worst movie of 2005 or the most dissapointing. Fair enough, chances are, it's decent, but best picture? Best freaking picture? And the amount of nominations it got... insanity. You guys are out of your fucking minds.

It's either Pacific Standard Light, Herald Gothic Medium, or Univers 39 Light...all of which (after a quick search) are only available if you pay anywhere between $20 to $40 for them.

Has anyone ever had a pinfall and a DQ happen at the same time? I was just watching a Norris/Diesel/Mr.T triple threat match, and T was pinning Diesel. Norris did an elbow drop just as the ref counted three, and despite T getting the three count it ended without a winner as the ref got up and called the DQ instead of the pin.

I hope nobody minded that I decided to jump into this...it's a tad longer than I'd have liked, but that was the best I could do so that the next in line had something workable to overlap. I'm pretty sure the beam could have done with a bit more work at the point of impact, but it's been a while since I've seen an episode of star trek (or used photoshop for that matter) and I'm not quite sure what they look like when they hit another ship...and I didn't bother with any text, as whatever I tried dragged the thing as a whole down.

Ugh...my brother plays Dynasty Warriors for hours on end, and the whole thing is so damn repetetive it makes me sick. Not to mention the voice acting on it is pretty atrocious, and made me want to stab red hot pokers into my ears

If you like the whole superhero genre, you should like Nemesis even if like Cloudy said it's pretty repetetive itself. Personally I'd go for one of the X-Men Legends games before that.

Dammit...I liked Mick in charge of the club, he was much better than the last guy who I hated so much I can't even remember what the hell his name was. But I'm glad Kevin Ball's taking over until the end of the season, and I wouldn't mind seeing him be the permanent replacement seeing as there can't be many decent managers who'd take on Sunderland in the state they're in.

Where are all the Russian billionaires when we need them?

I never played Kingdon Hearts but isn't it a kiddie game?

Monkey Island 1 and Final Fantasy 6 share the record for me...12 years and I'm still not bored with either of them. Recently games haven't really been able to sustain that level enjoyment for me and I usually go off them after a month or two.

I'm in, it'll give me a reason to open PS for the first time in god knows how many months.

If you can stomach Keanu Reeves, Constantine might fit into what you're looking for?

After the parental advisory logo flashes up, the intro video kicks in with "Nobody's Real" by Powerman 5000.

Alright

A series of slow begin focusing mainly on Seven, Ace Steel, and Ryan Sakoda along with several other stars flashing up momentarily

Scary monsters and super peeps

The more you dream the less you sleep

Life as you know it has gone away

Unbound, unwound, who's here to stay (away)

As the song progresses it kicks up a notch showing fast paced clips of various matches throughout the year. Birchall's debut is shown, tearing through Iceberg like he was nothing. A brief flurry of aerial moves takes over featuring guys like Insane Dragon, Air Paris, and Shannon Moore.

Nobody's real but they're willing to let you know

Nobody's real but they'll feel it tonight (feel it tonight)

Nobody's real but they're willing to let you go

Nobody's real but they'll feel it

It then cuts to the main event of Baptized In Blood, and shows several slow motion shots of Steven Richards superkicking Ace Steel. The smile on Seven's face as he stands over Steel with the belt remains on screen for several seconds...

Nobody's real

~~~~

Matthews: Hello everyone, and welcome to Body Count! We're only five days away from Living In Sin, and what a way to lead into it that an edition of Body Count dubbed a night of tag team matches?

Sanders: Without the aid of lubricant, I can't think of a better night for us than tonight!

Matthews: That was a little more information than I needed, but I'll forgive you because we have a big night of in ring action to get through!

Sanders: I don't need your forgivness, but I will agree we've got a huge lead in to Living In Sin on Sunday...

Matthews: Three tag team matches are scheduled for tonight, as well as our opening contest featuring two debuting talents. On one side of the ring will be the third member of The Iron Saints, Brandon Thomaselli. In the other will be B-Boy, a veteran of the So-Cal wrestling circuit.

Sanders: Both guys have a great opportunity right here, make a big impression on their debut and who knows where it could take them!

Matthews: Indeed it could, especially with the majority of those in the top ten rankings busy with their own problems. All it takes is one ipressive win to get your foot in the door and sneak out with someone's ranking spot.

Brandon Thomaselli Vs B-Boy

Both men naturally came to the ring to very little reaction from the crowd as it was their first time out in front of them. To their credit they didn't let that affect them too much and quickly got into the match without any problems. After a minute or two of trading blows around the ring they both looked settled and took the match up a notch. Throwing B-Boy to the outside, Brandon took an opportunity to cement his heel status by faking a somersault plancha and flipping the crowd off instead. This brief respite proved to be enough for B-Boy to gather himself and play possum while waiting for Thomaselli. As Brandon reached through the ropes B-Boy sprung into action and dragged him throat first down onto the middle rope! Staggering back into the middle of the ring, Thomaselli turned into a huge clothesline that came close to decapitating him! Dragging his barely concious opponent onto his feet, B-Boy whipped him across the ring and followed him in with another strong clothesline dropping him into a seated position in the corner. Clapping his hands together in an attempt to try and get the crowd behind him, B-Boy ran over to the other side of the ring. Pausing for a second he then charged at Thomaselli and leapt into a diving dropkick, following through and landing outside the ring! Thomaselli is left lying in the corner with a glazed over look on his face as B-Boy plays up to the crowd before getting back into the ring. Trying to drag him out of the corner, B-Boy gets nailed with a blatant low blow which somehow goes undetected by the ref. This allows Thomaselli to get back into the match with a series of forearms, staggering B-Boy back enough to catch him with a quick running head-scissors! Getting to his feet first, Brandon signalled for an Air Raid Crash and made his way towards B-Boy. As payback from earlier, B-Boy managed to hit an undetected low blow dropping Brandon to his knees. Getting to his feet he took several steps back and hit a huge Shining Wizard, covering him and getting the pinfall!

A Lesson In Disobediance...

As the ring was clearing, we're shown a shot of the parking lot, and the now familiar car of Evan Karagias pulling into an open spot. Stepping out, he looks around nervously for a few seconds before closing the door and heading towards the trunk. He pops it open and reaches for his bag, but is jerked backwards by Paul Birchall! Evan has no chance to fight back and the enraged Englishman takes full advantage, smashing him back first into a nearbyt car setting off the alarm. Karagias starts to slide down to the ground grimacing in pain, but Birchall refuses to give him the luxury and drags him back to his feet. Swinging him around with one hand on the back of his head, he drives Evan's head into the rear passenger window of the car several times, each one with more force than the last! Karagias can barely stand as Birchall spins him back around and pins him up against the car. Breathing heavily he gets within an inch of Evan's face, but gets caught by surprise as Evan swings for him and swipes across his face! Paul staggers backwards feeling the blood seeping down the side of his face thanks to Evan's car keys. The momentary distration is enough to allow Karagias to make a hazed dash for his car. Once inside he tries desperately to start it up as Birchall hammers on his window. Just as the engine kicks in Birchall manages to smash the glass and reach in, but Evan peels backwards leaving his adversary fuming once more as he escapes for the third week running.

...A Lesson In Respect

The screens don't shut off just yet, as Birchall angrily makes his way back into the building. It comes as no surprise to him that he's met by an equally enraged Steven Richards no more than three steps in.

Stevie: What the hell do you call that?

Birchall: Piss off Richards, I'm not in the mood.

He tries to walk past, but Stevie shows no fear and grabs hold of his left arm and pulls him back.

Stevie: I'm sorry, what was that?

Birchall: I said, I'm not in the mood.

Stevie: That's what I thought you said...but you know what? I DON'T GIVE A SHIT!

Birchall remains motionless, staring straight into Stevie's eyes knowing he's deadly serious.

Stevie: I'm sick and tired of this "inmates run the asylum" XGW has got right now. I told you NOT to lay your hands on Evan tonight, and you did exactly the opposite. It's about time people around here started to take me seriously, starting with you...

Paul looks at him, far from being pleased with what Richards is saying to him.

Birchall: Is that I threat?

Stevie: A threat, a promise, call it whatever you like. But before the night is over you WILL be punished for breaking MY rules!

Richards doesn't wait for a reply from Birchall, leaving him to stew over his decision to reprimand him.

Stevie Lays Down The Law (1 min) 46.7%

Matthews: We haven't seen that kind of Stevie since way back when he had his problems with Iceberg!

Sanders: I wasn't with you guys back then, but I've seen the tapes and I have to say I comend Stevie's guts...even if he does seem to have a deathwish.

Matthews: Stevie made it specifically clear that Birchall was not to go after Evan tonight, what was he supposed to do...go back on his word?

Sanders: Don't get me wrong, I agree that he should have gone through with punishing Birchall, it's just do you really want to piss off someone who looks like they could tear you in half without breaking a sweat?

Matthews: You've got a point, but now we have to ask the question as to what exactly will be in store for Birchall later tonight?

Sanders: No doubt it'll be a punishment fitting of the crime from the tone in Stevie's voice.

Matthews: While we're going to have to wait until later to find that out, something we won't have to wait for is the identity of the two tag partners in our next match! As everyone will be aware by now, David Young was...by his own admission...embarassed by The Berzerker in his debut match two weeks ago. His refusal to accept that Berzerker was the better man in their match has lead to a hardcore match signed for Living In Sin this Sunday. But both men have been charged with finding someone to team with them in this tag match. Young has shown no allegiances since debuting, and I'm sure Berzerker is someone the rest of the locker room keeps away from if only for his sheer oddball qualities.

Sanders: Hey, don't knock vikings...they kick ass, especially when they're close to seven feet tall!

Pick Your Partner Tag Team Match

David Young and ?????? Vs The Berzerker and ??????

The duo's make their way out first, with David Young walking down the ramp. He stops and signals to his partner, and Bobby Roode pushes through the curtain with a cocky smirk on his face! The two former TNA stars make their way down to the ring, taking turns climbing through the ropes. The fans naturally cheer loudly as The Berzerker storms onto the stage, followed closely by an odd choice in The Green Phantom! The strange pairing walk down the short ramp as Young and Roode laugh mockingly at their opponents. The big viking steps over the top rope and goes straight for Young, as Phantom slides in through to bottom rope and takes Roode down with a diving tackle! David tries to fight off the big Berzerker and they soon spill out of the ring leaving their chosen partners to start the match. Phantom's advantage quickly diminishes as Roode shows his superior mat wrestling skill and works himself into a favourable position to launch and attack of his own. On the outside, Young and Berzerker continue to brawl around the ring splitting the crowd's attention in the match. As Roode plants Phantom in the middle of the ring with a big powerslam, Young slides back into the ring followed closely by The Berzerker. David quickly runs past Bobby, who catches Berzerker with a stiff Northern Lariat knocking him flat on his back! With the biggest man in the match down, Young and Roode turn their attention to Green Phantom and waste no time in making the most of their advantage. The fans start to show signs of getting behind the masked hardcore warrior as he tries desperately to fight off the advances of both men, but in the end they prove to be too much and overwhelm him. In a move to add insult to their opponents, Young and Roode whip Phantom off the ropes and flapjack him onto the still downed Berzerker! Then Roode calls for Young to climb to the top rope, which he does without hesitation. Taking hold of both his hands, Bobby pulls David off the top flipping him into a huge assisted Senton on the Phantom/Berzerker pairing! Roode quickly piles on to make the pinfall, but to everyone's shock Berzerker powers out of the pin! He slowly starts to drag himself to his feet as Young and Roode swarm him with a barrage of right hands. Reaching a vertical standing he begins to fight back, clotheslining Young back over the top rope and connecting with a huge Big Boot on Roode! Choosing to go after Young again, Berzerker climbs out of the ring leaving Roode and Phantom down on the canvas. As the two legal men struggle to get back to their feet, David desperately tries to stop the advances of Berzerker. This goes so far as stealing a crutch from a fan at ringside and blasting him over the head with it! The ref doesn't see it and Young quickly disposes of the crutch before returning to the ring. Phantom is just back to his feet when he turns into a huge Spinebuster from Young! Pulling Roode on top of him, the ref has no choice but to count the pin and call for the bell.

David Young and Bobby Roode def. The Berzerker and The Green Phantom (Roode pins Phantom) (9 mins) 52.9%

Sanders: Now that's what I call using your head, or in this case using a crutch on your opponent's head!

Matthews: I'm sure it comes as no surprise to anyone that David Young once again employed illegal tactics to get one over on The Berzerker.

Sanders: Would you be saying the same thing if it was the other way around?

Matthews: Of course I would, either way it's cheating and no one deserves to lose because their opponent can't obey the rules.

Fighting Temptation

Speaking of obeying the rules, we're shown another shot of the backstage where Ace seems to be in deep concentration as he paces back and forth. However he soon comes to a stand still, and his demeanour changes dramatically.

Seven: I know you want to do it...

Seven steps into view with nothing but evil intentions on his face.

Seven: You just can't help yourself can you? Hating me is a drug you haven't been able to get out of your system for over a year. You and I both know I can't be stopped. Sooner or later my legion will grow enough to take down this cesspit and move on to the next unsuspecting host. The darkness speading through this company will eat away at everything until nothing is left but a dead, rotting, bloated carcass that even the maggots would turn their noses up at. But you...you have a chance to change all of that...

He pauses momentarily for dramatic effect.

Seven: ...hit me...

Ace's right eyebrow cocks up as he instantly catches onto Seven's obvious intention.

Seven: Give in to what you feel deep within yourself, and hit me. One punch is all I'm asking for. XGW is so intent on getting rid of me? Then all you have to do is hit me right here in my face. I'll drop the belt, and walk out of this insignificant little dot on the wrestling map. I'll spare it the fate of every other promotion I intend to destroy, and all it's going to take is one small act of agression on your part...

Ace looks down at his right hand, now clenched tightly into a whitened fist. His gaze trails back up to Seven's wicked grin, and he swings! Seven doesn't budge an inch as Ace's fist hovers a few centimeters away from his face. The grin fades as Ace shakes his head and steps backwards.

Ace: Quite frankly, you're not worth it. I've only got to wait five days, then I can hit you all I want and still get a chance at walking out with my belt back...nice try though, for a second I almost believed you'd leave if I hit you.

His laugh can be heard as he walks out of view leaving Seven practically shaking with anger.

Ace Refuses To Play Seven's Games (2 min) 42.2%

Matthews: For a second there I thought Ace was actually going to go through with it!

Sanders: I didn't...even if Seven made a huge offer like that, why would Ace waste his chance at becoming the only two time XGW champion?

Matthews: Oh come on, you have to admit that why he threw that punch, part of you thought it was going to connect.

Sanders: Nope, can't say that I did...but I wouldn't expect you to understand, not being a wrestler and all that.

Matthews: Hey, I've beaten a WWE Champion...can you say the same?

Sanders: ......

Matthews: Thought not...but to quell any impending hostility, let's jump straight into our next match shall we?

Sanders: ...whatever...

Matthews: Ok...Shannon Moore and Insane Dragon have formed a long standing friendship over that past eight months or so. Both watched each others backs during matches with The Lost Boys, and stuck together ever since. In five days they get a tag team title shot against Azreal and Gabriel, but have to get past an unknown element here in XGW in the form of Sal and Vito Thomaselli.

Shannon Moore and Insane Dragon Vs The Iron Saints

The Saints come into this match looking very focused and aiming to win their first match and cause an upset over the more experienced XGW stars in the process. Shannon and Dragon make their way down to the ring together as a show of solidarity despite the rumors of a possible split between the two. Both Sal and Vito know they have to take the initiative from the opening bell, but choose to jump the gun with stereo dives over the top rope onto their opponents! As all four bodies crash onto the floor, the Saints quickly regroup and choose to target the Prince of Punk first. Rolling him into the ring they leave the Junior Heavyweight champion lying on the ground by the ramp. Immediately they start proving to everyone that they are no slouches as a tag team, hitting Shannon with a trifecta of double suplexes before Sal is forced out of the ring leaving Vito by himself with Moore. The match remains firmly in the favour of the Thomaselli's after a rash decision by Insane Dragon, choosing to try and get some revenge. The ref naturally forces him out of the ring allowing Salvatore to get back into the ring and help Vito plant Shannon with a flapjack facebuster! Vito is quickly out of the ring leaving Sal to make the cover despite no legal tag. Luckily for Dragon, Moore is able to kick out at two and after an attempted roll up on Sal, make his way over and tag out of the match! Dragon gets in quickly and goes straight across the ring to Vito, knocking him off the apron with a charging body block. With one Thomaselli on the ground, the other soon follows as he's thrown forcibly over the top rope. Waiting until both men stagger into a perfect position, Dragon springboards onto the top rope and lives up to his name with a crazy corkscrew body splash! That immediately peaks the fans interest in the match, but they look to Shannon who seems to have something similar on his mind. Climbing to the top rope he doesn't wait until Dragon is out of the way, choosing to risk the match by hitting a twisting senton onto the three men below! All four men lay in a heap on the floor much like at the beginning of the match, but this time it's Shannon Moore who's first to his feet, throwing Vito back into the ring. Hopping back up onto the top rope, he signals for a Halo. As he's about to hit it, Sal climbs onto the apron and grabs his leg. Struggling to fight him off, Moore kicks him backwards and he lands on a rising Insane Dragon! Vito uses this distraction to try and throw Shannon off the top rope, but he's met with a series of headbutts sending him back down to the canvas. Wasting no time on the second attempt, Moore hits a perfectly placed Halo and gets the win for his team!

Shannon Moore and Insane Dragon def. The Iron Saints (Moore Pins Vito) (8 mins) 55.3%

Matthews: An impressive victory there for Shannon Moore and Insane Dragon!

Sanders: Indeed it was, but if you look at the two on the ramp right now, it doesn't look like everything is rosey between the two. I don't think Shannon actually cares that he kicked Sal Thomaselli onto Dragon.

Matthews: How can you possibly say that?

Sanders: I have experience in lip reading...although most of the time not on faces...

Matthews: That was...very disturbing, and highly irrelavent as I'm sure Shannon didn't mean to do that, it was just a case of wrong place at the wrong time.

Sanders: Vey convenient wouldn't you say?

Matthews: No I wouldn't, and it's obvious neither of us are going to change our minds, so let's just drop it and move on because we still have...

Punishment, Payback, What's The Difference?

Josh is cut off by the opening strains of "Sick" by Seven Wiser, as Birchall makes his way down the ramp flanked by Dean Ayass. Both men share the same pissed off expression as they climb into the ring, and Ayass takes a microphone.

Ayass: Paul and myself have been talking in the back, and quite frankly we're sick of waiting. Now Steven, I have the upmost respect for you, but the simple fact is punishing Birchall for something he had every right to do is a load of bollocks. We left England and the FWA, to come here and ply our trade on the other side of the Atlantic under the impression that the United States would be a different animal for us to tackle. But lo and behold, everywhere we go whether it be here or Paul in the WWE...people are afraid. Every person in this building is afraid to let Birchall be himself, as they know only I can contain him. Now I have to say I'm a little dissapointed that someone who has been held back for most of his career like you have Steven, would proceed to do the same thing now that you are in a position of authority. We don't want to do this, but...

Both Ayass and Birchall, along with all the fans in attendance are shocked to hear Evan Karagias' music hit the sound system. But sure enough he walks out onto the stage with a microphone in hand. Immediately Birchall makes a beeline for him, but he's cut off by Evan's words.

Karagias: Whoa, whoa, whoa...hold it right there you limey son of a bitch!

Surprisingly that stops him in his tracks, as he stares a hole right through Evan on the safety of the stage.

Karagias: You know, I'm getting sick and tired of runnin away from you. For the life of me I can't think why you've got such a problem with me. Or maybe I do...the simple fact is Paul, you're just jealous of me!

The fans boo the blatant bullshit spweing from his mouth, but he simply brushes it off and carries on.

Karagias: Ever since you arrived in XGW last year, you've been walking around like you own the place. So a bunch of smarks have been having a collective orgasm over you for years, but really...what the hell do they know? It's the same as all these people in attendance. They've been sucked into the myth that is Paul Birchall. So you throw out a few flashy moves and expect people to bend over and kiss your ass? Well FUCK THAT! XGW is MY HOUSE! Nobody built this place up more than I did...not Seven, not Ace Steel, not Ryan Sakoad, none of them can hold a candle to me! You're tubby bitch of a manager wants to complain about you being held back? Don't make me puke! The reason you're not in the main event, is you just don't cut it. I on the other hand, I AM getting screwed out of what I deserve! I've been sitting on top of the rankings since it's inception, and I've only had one title shot. Not only that, but I've got to make overrated trash like you look good so the smarks keep logging on to the site and watching this crappy show. Well I've had enough of pulling people up to my level. The fact is I outsmarted you in your big chance to take the next step. I didn't need brawn to beat you, I just used my brain. Pepper spray can take down a person of any size or shape, and I proved that by blinding you and pinning you one...two...three. So you want to keep trying to get your revenge? Well that's fine by me, because you won't win. Do you want to know why you've got no chance of winning? You won't win, because you've got nobody to WATCH...YOUR...BACK!

On cue, two men leap the barricade behind Birchall and slide into the ring.

Ayass gets shoved out of the way as they both drop Birchall with a double clothesline, and begin viciously stomping away on his head and neck as Evan casually walks down the ramp with a shit eating grin on his face. Paul tries to fight back but is overpowered and kept down on the ground as Karagias slides into the ring with the mic still in his posession.

Karagias: Did you really think I was going to keep letting to attack me week after week? I've got more important things to deal with than always watching my back for you. So I did what any self respecting superstar would do...I went out and hired two of the nastiest sons of bitches I could find to put you in your place permanently!

Ayass gets to his feet and looks to try and go after Evan himself.

Karagias: Don't take another step closer lardass, or you'll get dropped like a bad habit! Hey Paul, do you remember Stevie saying you'd be punished for breaking his rules? Well congratulations, you finally got yourself a match at Living In Sin. Five days from now, you're going to walk into this ring with these two men, Travis and Luther. But believe me when I say this...you WON'T be walking out!

Karagias nods, as Luther drags Birchall to his feet then up into a bearhug. Travis bounces off the ropes and levels Paul in the face with a huge running big boot, giving Luther extra momentum for the spinebuster he drives Birchall into the ring with! The fans are stunned as Paul lies motionless on the canvas, and Evan ushers his bodyguards out of the ring and up the ramp.

Karagias Introduces His New Bodyguards (4 mins) 33.2%

Sanders: You can't blame Evan for going out to find someone to watch his back, and they don't come much better than Luther Reigns and Travis Tomko!

Matthews: I'm inclined to agree, but how sick do you think it made Stevie to basically give Karagias an opportunity to finish off Birchall for good?

Sanders: A punishment fitting of the crime I said earlier...no better punishment than to put Birchall against Evan's hired guns. If he's as good as everyone says he is, this should be a walk in the park for him!

Matthews: No matter how good you are, two on one odds is never a good situation to be faced with. Sure Birchall is a rare talent, but both Luther and Travis are several inches taller and several pounds heavier than he is. That right there puts Birchall in as the underdog for the first time in his XGW career in my books. But speaking of underdogs, that's the perfect way to segue into our next match! Air Delay have been constant underdogs since they started teaming together, and as such have very few wins under their belt. Many skeptics have been calling for them to be let go as dead weight, but tonight they have the chance to shut them all up when they take on the biggest team in XGW.

Sanders: I don't like Air Delay's chances against the Samoans one bit...

Air Delay Vs The Samoan Island Gangsters

Both Seth and Paris get a sympathetic pop from some of the crowd, as they make their way down to the ring like two people heading to the executioners block. Nobody really rates their chances, and neither do they as they slugishly get into the ring and wait for The Gangsters. To no one's surprise Eddie and Matt are in a much more jovial mood as they make their way down to the ring with smiles on their faces looking at the prey waiting for them in the ring. Eddie slides under the bottom rope, and in the blink of an eye both Seth and Paris pounce! Going from lost souls to desperate animals, both members of Air Delay show a savage fury that is totally unlike them. The crowd is stunned silent as they hammer away on Eddie's head with stiff boots showing no signs of stopping. Anoai, after being stunned silent himself quickly snaps out of his shock and hits the ring. However he too faces the wrath of his much smaller opponents, and recieves the same barrage of boots to the head that Fatu recieved. Literally looking like two small dogs backed into a corner, Air Delay refuse to back down and give the Samoans any time to recover. In another shock moment so early into the match, both Seth and Paris show there's more to them than their small stature, by snapping Anoai into the middle of the ring with a thunderous double suplex! The determined show of fight starts to win over the crowd as they continue to isolate both Fatu and Anoai in short bursts. As the assault slows down, the ref finally forced Paris out onto the apron leaving Seth to concentrate on Anoai. Alone they don't fare as effectively as they did together, and Matt eventually finds a way back to his feet. Less then pleased, he lifts Seth up and over his head with ease, before dropping him throat first onto the top rope! As Delay is thrown back by the force of the ropes, Anoai delivers a vicious clothesline to the back of his head! Lying flat on his stomach, Delay isn't moving an inch. Some of the fans seem legitimately concerned as Anoai rolls him over expecting an easy win. However much to his dsibelief Seth actually kicks out! Refusing to be shown up, Matt pulls him to his feet and whips him across the ring towards Eddie. Fatu tags in, and in their own show of tag team experience use their own force to whip each other into Delay crushing him under their weight! Paris jumps into the ring only to be flipped into the air and driven down with a huge Samoan Drop by Fatu! The match finally takes the path it was expected to from the beginning, with the Samoans standing dominant over their smaller opponents. Delay is getting up in the corner as Paris is set up for the Gang Warfare. Eddie begins his ascent to the top rope, but the crowd's attention is drawn to the stage as two instantly recognisable faces sprint down the ramp armed with chairs...

Warrington wastes no time blasting Fatu in the back with his chair, as Ruth slides in and levels a barely lucid Seth Delay with his chair! Anoai drops Paris with a mixed look of confusion and anger, but he too takes a chair shot for his troubles. With all four men in the match down on the canvas Warrington and Ruth celebrate in the ring, but it doesn't last for long...

The Commish Lays Down More Law

Interrupting the celebrations, Steven Richards marches out onto the stage with a mic in hand.

Stevie: Why am I not surprised to see you two here when you're not supposed to be? I have to say you're going to fit right in as EVERYONE around here seems to ignore everything that comes out of my mouth! But I guess in a way I should be thanking you for ruining this match, as I've decided how to debut you. In five days time the two of you will make your in ring debuts at Living In Sin. Your opponents? They're lying in the ring with you, and I bet they're all pissed off about being hit with chairs. There are a lot of teams coming into XGW now, so spots at the top are getting a little crowded. Shannon and Dragon may have the next shot at The Lost Boyz, but let's just say the winner of your match will be getting serious consideration as the next in line.

He pauses, allowing his announcment to sink in slightly before adding another layer to it.

Stevie: But let's make this interesting shall we? Why not have the match under elimination rules? Sure it'd be tougher to pick up the win, but it would leave no doubt that the winners deserve to be considered top contenders. Yeah, I like that...three teams, elimination rules. For your sakes I hope those four don't pick one of you off, as a four on one ass kicking could kill your chances before they started! Now if you don't mind, kindly get yourselves out of my ring as I have one more insubordinate superstar to deal with.

Stevie waits as little by little the six men trickle to the back leaving the ring empty.

Stevie: Now that was supposed to be the main event of the evening, but what kind of commissioner would I be if I sent you all home after that? it all worked out great in the end thanks to one man...Seven. You tried to break the non-agression rule I put in place for tonight. While I would have loved Ace to knock your head off and get rid of you for good, I'm glad he didn't. You see if he did, I wouldn't have had the pleasure of booking a special match to end the night. Right here in this ring, whether you like it or not, you're going to compete. Who's your opponent? Well I figured seeing as you wanted Ace to hit you, I'd give you a guy notorious for being a stiff bastard. So your opponent for tonight is none other than the man they call "The Mastodon"...VADER!

The crowd pops like crazy for the announcment of an in ring return for Vader. Stevie's smile is hard to miss as he heads back through the curtain to let the special main event take place.

Matthews: Oh my god...Vader making his return to in ring action tonight?!

Sanders: I think this is a better time than any to say Holy Shit! Seven is going to pay dearly for crossing Stevie one time too many.

Matthews: The champ has got off quite easily in recent months as he's been able to physically out match most of his opponents...but Vader? He completely dwarfs Seven no matter which way you look at it!

Sanders: All I can add is in the short existence of Body Count, this has to be the biggest main event match we've had, even if there have only been three of them!

Non Title Match

Seven© Vs Vader

Seven makes his way down to the ring without the rest of the 7th Circle tonight, but his face shows a slight fear he hasn't shown for his entire run in XGW. He quietly climbs into the ring, removing his coat and title belt before laying them on the ground outside. Pacing back and forth he can only wait as a much more in shape Vader makes his way out through the curtain, sans any music at all. The fans still go crazy as he marches down to the ring and rolls in through the bottom rope. Rising to his feet he's met with several well placed right hands from the champ, desperate to take him down before the match has a chance to get going. However Vader shrugs the shots off easily and unleashes a flurry of rights and left of his own, peppering Seven's midsection as he staggers backwards into the middle of the ring. With no time to breath, he finds himself smothered by a running body block and flat on his back looking up at the roof of the Gravity Bar. Vader doesn't miss a step as he bounces off the ropes and flattens the champ with a standing body splash , but only manages to get two before Seven kicks out. Instead of arguing with the referee, Vader drags the champ to his feet and whips him into a nearby turnbuckle. Following him in with a charging body splash, the mastodon steps back watching Seven drop to the ground in a seated position. Instead of waiting for him to rise, Vader continues his dominating display by pulling him to his feet and slamming him onto the canvas near the corner. At first he seems to signal for the Vader Bomb, but as he climbs the ropes he ascension continues to the top. Standing with his back to Seven for a second, the 380lbs man leaps off the top with a huge Vadersault! The ring shakes violently as Vader eats nothing but canvas, with Seven rolling a few inches away to safety. The champ slowly makes his way to his feet, but Vader is already standing. Seven looks legitimately confuses to see him up so early, and for a few seconds they simply stare at each other. Taking the initiative, Seven angrily pushes Vader off the ropes signalling for a Pale Horse but Vader runs back and simply clashes with Seven. By this time the fans have started to realise something is wrong. Seven pushes Vader, who levels him with a legitimate right hand! He follows him down and begins raining down stiff punches to the side of his face, as the ref waves his hands calling to the back. Several wrestlers pour out from the back, including Ace Steel and Ryan Sakoda. Several swarm the ring and jump Vader, subduing him long enough for the rest to get a bloodied and barely conscious Seven out of the ring and to the back. The crowd can only watch in silence as the wrestlers holding Vader are shouting at him as they try to drag him to the back.

Matthews: I...I don't know how to explain this, but that was NOT part of the show...Kevin looks legitimately hurt after taking a beating he didn't deserve.

Sanders: What the fuck did he do that for?

Matthews: I don't know, but I'm sorry we have to go now...hopefully we'll be able to give you more information on this incident as soon as we can.

Update On Incident On Recent XGW Show

For the people in attendance this past Tuesday, and those who watched the show on XeroGwrestling.com (Which you can find a link to Here) they won't forget the main event in a hurry. In what seemed to start as part of the match, quickly became apparent as anythin but scripted. Many wrestlers broke character to rush the ring and get Kevin Fertig (known as Seven) away from the ring after being attacked by Leon White during their match. Until earlier today no one knew why the incident happened, but several hours ago we were able to get an official word on what happened. White, who initially had agreed to put Seven over in the impromptu match, changed his mind sometime between meeting with the booking team and before he was due to wrestle. The argument that broke out backstage could be heard by the people who hung around the bar area after the show, and heard several unknown voices berating Whte about what he did. His reasoning behind it was that he didn't think Fertig deserved to be put over him in a throwaway match. The incident was compounded by word that White had been handed a contract by AJPW the day of the show, which he had actually signed before assaulting Fertig. Upon being admitted to a nearby hopsital, it had been confirmed that Fertig had seffered a mild concussion and several superficial cuts and bruises. No word has been issued on whether or not he intends to press charges, and this incident has thrown his involvment in the upcoming XGW show into jeopardy.

On a slightly less serious note, XeroGwrestling.com also has a small article (link Here) about a change to the scheduled card. The match between The Berzerker and David Young has switched from a Hardcore match to a Fans Bring The Weapons Match following the events of the tag team match on Body Count. The article encourages fans to bring unusual items with them on Sunday, with emphasis on the less than conventional side.

$750,000 with only that and the $50 suitcase left in play...it was just a case of telling the bank to fuck off with every shitty offer they gave me, especially after playing one game and having the million suitcase along with the $100 suitcase left, and only being offered around $200,000...tight cunt

I'm kinda on the fence about this...it could be complete shit, but I think it has the chance (however small) of being at least decent.
